What you're supposed to do is get your MISE EN PLACE, that means get your shit ready, prep all the ingredients, mince and dice whatever and get them into prep bowls, and then start cooking when everything is actually ready to be cooked.
If you want to do dishes while you're cooking,
adjust the heat, dawg, nothing should be burning in the 2-3 minutes it takes between stirring to wash something. If it is, you're cooking it too hot
Timers dawg, timers, if shits on heat set a timer. At least in the 2-3 minutes you're trying to multi task if it goes off you'll have the chance to be like "what the fuck was that for OH MY GOD MY ONIONS"
It's cause you didn't think about it and you're not in the habit of doing it, but that's what we're here for
Maybe leave a note for yourself reminding you to use timers next time you cook so you get into the habit

I've heard of people setting themselves really short-term alarms, like 2 minutes or such. If you get one of those mechanical kitchen timers, you can set it up real quick and extend it, if you get back to the stove before it goes off.
